Shortly after the Chiefs’ 33-10 win over Denver in their regular-season home finale on Dec. 25, team chairman Clark Hunt praised coach Andy Reid and general manager John Dorsey for the job they’ve done since arriving before the 2013 season.
“When they joined us four years ago, we had high hopes,” Hunt said at the time. “Andy was somebody who, over his years in Philadelphia, had demonstrated that he can make the playoffs a lot. Certainly, he’s lived up to all of those expectations.”
So when news leaked Sunday that the Chiefs intend to secure an extension for Reid, who only has one year left on his contract after this season, it was not much of a surprise.
